I read ALL of the available reviews on this style of lamp before purchasing.
They either loved it or hated it. I hoped for the best! Received it with a week. The directions were VERY basic. It will look like some of the parts are missing (screws & bolts) when in fact they are already attached to other components. The only issue I had was that the wrench (that was supposed to be included) was not in the box. This made it a little challenging for me. Looks and works great!

We had purchased a similar lamp from another vendor, but it was poorly packaged and arrived as a wreck. We returned it with no problems, and ordered this lamp. The lamp arrived quickly very securely packaged. As another reviewer wrote, the small parts are all connected and have to be removed then replaced when the lamp is assembled. However, the assembly is fast and easy. The lamp has a variable dimmer. It uses candelabra base bulbs. If you have high ceilings and need a lot of light, this is a good way to go.Best Deals for Coaster Black Overhead Sofa Floor Lamp
The packaging was terrible, the base won`t connect to the main light pole because the threaded piece in the light pole was either welded in backwards or way to far up the pole because the threaded piece won`t go through the base to allow the nut to attach it. It is at least three quarter of an inch to short. I will have to go to the hardware store and buy a bolt to make it work, if I can find the right thread. I would send it back but the packaging fell apart during shipping. Also there is some sort of white stuff on the base that should not be there.Honest reviews on Coaster Black Overhead Sofa Floor Lamp
I purchased this item largely due to the photograph which shows a base that appeared as though it would mostly fit under my couch...the lamp I received had a different style base entirely and does not fit under the couch. But before making that discovery, probably should have seen some writing on the wall...for the shipping price I paid, would have expected it to be hand delivered in a gold crate, instead the box that showed up on my doorstep after a week was clearly a hybrid of several boxes that had been inelegantly taped together, and upon fighting to open the box, I discovered that 1 of the 5 included light bulbs had shattered inside it's individual bubble wrap. Within minutes of completing the setup, 1 of the 5 "arms" snapped clean off the base and crashed to the floor not repairable but at least now I don't need all 5 bulbs anyway.At the end of the day...I don't plan on trying to return it, largely because I mangled the packaging to get it out and don't have a box to send it back in, and any guests in my home who didn't know it had 5 arms originally will probably never know, looks OK with the 4 and a piece of electrical tape. Also don't have high hopes that a replacement of the same product would be a different experience. I'm pretty much crossing my fingers that it lasts about a year at which point it will be replaced with a higher quality product. It does look nice once assembled and I like the dimmer function. Terrible design for assembly and worse packaging.
